"Most of what was written in the DT is bunkum, almost certainly from a disgruntled grunt".
What exactly was bunkum? That they were from 1 Para? That they were dropped at night? That they were dropped by a RAF C130? That they were dropped in the wrong place? That they were dropped into trees? That 9 were injured and hospitalised?
Damn right it came from a disgruntled grunt. Fortunately a live one (just).
